We just wanted to send love to our sister #AriLennox who is celebrating one year of sobriety today!
The singer opened up about her journey via an Instagram post today and explained how her habit was seemingly exacerbated by her fear of flying. One of her final sobering moments was waking up in an airport after a drunken stupor and missing a flight.
“I woke up extremely unwell, clothes TAINTED with EMTs surrounding me, worrying about what I might’ve taken,” Lennox wrote. “I told them just alcohol. “Just alcohol” could’ve killed me. I had many guardian angels watching over me that day.”
She went on to detail her toxic relationship with alcohol and how she decided to take steps to seek help.
“I decided December 18th 2022, would be the day I got clean. You know what I realized after 1 year of many sober flights? I never needed alcohol to get through the flight. I thought I needed alcohol to escape my reality and to cope. I needed an excuse to drink and not feel the pain of every day life and trauma. It was my numbing vacation to avoid my purpose and my truth.”
Being sober is not easy and we comment you, sis! We wish you well on your journey. #BWLM💕
